Professional development workshops

Professional Development Workshops are hands-on, interactive sessions that provide an opportunity to learn new skills or hone existing ones. The workshops precede and follow the conference and differ from sessions offered during the conference in at least three ways:

  1. Each is longer (either 3, 6, or 12 hours in length) and thus provides a more in-depth exploration of a skill or area of knowledge;
  2. Presenters are paid for their time and are expected to have significant experience both presenting and in the subject area; and,
  3. Attendees pay separately for these workshops and are given the opportunity to evaluate the experience.

Sessions are filled on a first-come, first-served basis and most are likely to fill before the conference begins.

Registration: Registration for professional development workshops is handled as part of the conference registration forms; however, you may register for professional development workshops even if you are not attending the conference itself.

Fees: Workshop registration fees are in addition to the fees for conference registration. Please note that all fees are given in Canadian dollars.

CES/AEA Members$420$210$105
Non Members$480$240$120
Students$220$110$55

Full Sessions: Sessions that are closed because they have reached their maximum attendance will be clearly marked below the session name online. No further registrations will be accepted for full sessions and we do not maintain waiting lists. Once sessions are closed, they will not be re-opened.

Workshops will be delivered in the language of submission.
